User reviews

Needs a lot of work and more options; like... - ability to hide the side info - resize the video popup - get the hover timer to work - choose hover or a click option -etc... You know, the kind of options that would be a bit obvious to the average developer.

Timer doesn't seem to work (always defaults to ~10ms), popping up constantly, unintentionally

current requirement to get this addon to work: YouTube > Settings > Playback and performance > Browsing > Video previews (toggle this off)
